Definitions

  • fastening clips find many applications particularly in the automotive industry to ensure the attachment of two pieces of equipment of a vehicle one on the other.
  • the clip may be intended for fixing a trim lining on a structural element of the vehicle. These fittings are visible inside the cabin and its fixing must be invisible for aesthetic reasons.
  • a fastening clip of the kind mentioned above is described in the document EP1482184 wherein the fastening clip has a top base from which extends a pair of outer side legs between which is placed a pair of inner side legs also connected to the top base.
  • the flexible outer branches comprise clipping means on an opening of the first part.
  • Each inner branch, adjacent to an associated outer branch, has a first portion connected to the root base and extended by a second portion folded towards the inside of the clip in the direction of the summit base.
  • Each second portion consists of an inward folding zone and a free lateral displacement blade.
  • Each blade with free lateral movement carries a hooking element of the tenon, directed towards the central housing to retain the tenon inside the central housing.
  • the hooking elements are continuously projecting inside the central housing, regardless of the state of the clip, that is to say that it is clipped or not on the first part, and that the tenon of the second piece is or not engaged in the central housing.
  • any axial displacement of the tenon causes a corresponding axial output of the clip (thanks to the gripping elements in the pin) relative to the opening of the first piece.
  • This axial movement of the staple is accompanied by a gradual lateral separation of the fastening elements, implying a decrease in the retention towards the second part. Fixing the clip on the second part therefore decreases progressively from the beginning of the axial outlet of the clip, and although the clipping of the clip on the first part has not ceased.
  • the quality of the retention of the second piece by the staple decreases in inverse proportion to the value of the axial displacement of the staple, with the consequence of lowering the staple.
  • reliability of the attachment of the second part susceptible to vibration and therefore noise source.
  • a sliding is even likely to occur between the clip and the fastening post of the second part.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a fastening clip which is easy to set up and which improves the attachment of parts together.
  • each inner branch comprises elastic means for lateral displacement of the corresponding fastening element, to selectively occupy a projecting locking position inside the central housing for axially locking the tenon, or a position of release of the tenon released from the central housing, and in that the clip is provided with means for actuating the displacement of the fastening elements to their locking positions, automatically controlled by the clipping of staple on the first piece.
  • the engagement of the fastening elements in the tenon is practiced while the tenon is already axially in place in the central housing of the clip. There is no external damage caused by the mounting and the efforts of setting up the clip on the post are weak.
  • the locking position remains applied as long as the clip is in the clipped position, that is to say as long as the clipping has not stopped. But the clipping only stops after a predetermined axial stroke of the clip relative to the first piece.
  • the attachment between the staple and the second piece is held firmly during the beginning of the axial output of the staple.
  • the locking position is maintained and the retention of the second part remains complete and reliable and no vibration is possible between the two parts.
  • the locking position being maintained during a specific axial stroke of the staple, the risk of slippage between the staple and the fastening post of the second part are removed in case of voluntary dismantling.
  • each inner branch comprises a first portion connected to the root base and extended by a second portion folded outwardly of the clip towards the base, each folded portion comprising an elastically folding zone. deformable and a blade with free lateral movement carrying the corresponding fastening element, the folding zone ensures a disposition of the blade partly laterally interposed between the first portion and the adjacent outer branch, while maintaining a blade portion at the lateral level a clipping hook carried said outer branch.
  • Such a configuration of the clip constitutes a simple and reliable embodiment of the means for lateral displacement of the fastening elements, and means for actuating the displacement towards their locking position.
  • the illustrated fastening clip 10 has a jumper shape with two superposed U's, nested one inside the other.
  • the clip 10 is composed for this purpose of a base 11, from which extends, in an axial direction D1 of the clip 10, a pair of external lateral branches 12, 13 flexible offset between them in a lateral direction D2 of the staple 10. Between the outer branches 12, 13 is arranged a second pair of inner lateral branches 14, 15 offset from each other in the lateral direction D2.
  • the internal branches 14, 15 are substantially parallel to each other and are also directed in the axial direction D1.
  • the branches 12 to 15 are all arranged in the same plane including the axial and lateral directions D1, D2.
  • the fastening clip 10 makes it possible to fasten two pieces to one another, these parts being formed for example by pieces of equipment of a motor vehicle.
  • the pieces are designated by the references 19, 20.
  • the first piece 19 ( figure 3 ), having a support function of the assembly, comprises an opening 21 in which is engaged axially the clip 10 for its clipping.
  • the second piece 20 ( figure 2 ) is in turn hooked on the fastening clip 10, prior to the step of clipping the clip 10 on the first piece 19.
  • the root base 11 has a general U shape, and has an intermediate portion 16 included in the lateral direction and in a transverse direction D3 perpendicular to the other two directions.
  • the sides lateral portions of the intermediate portion 16 are connected to raised edges 17, 18 in the axial direction D1.
  • each outer leg 12, 13 comprises a clipping hook 22, 23 shaped hollow, connected to a raised edge 17, 18 corresponding by a blade flexible 24, 25 inclined laterally inwardly of the clip 10 by approaching axially the top base 11.
  • the clipping hook 22, 23 conjugate at its junction substantially at right angles to the associated flexible blade 24, 25 is a hard point clipping means on the edges of the opening 21 of the first piece 19.
  • the lateral movement of the hooks 22, 23 is in particular the result of the elastic bending of the my hoses 24, 25.
  • the junction zone between the raised edge 17, 18 of the base 11 and the corresponding flexible blade 24, 25 comprises two successive folds, offset in the axial direction D1 and inverted curvatures: a first fold connected to the raised edge 17, 18 and directed inwardly of the clip 10, and a second fold connected to the flexible blade 24, 25 and directed outwardly of the staple 10.
  • the combined presence of the two plies successives has the effect of improving the distribution of mechanical stresses.
  • each internal branch 14, 15 carries an element fastening 28, 29 directed laterally inwardly of the clip 10 towards the central housing 26 to retain the pin 27 in the central housing 26.
  • Each inner branch 14, 15 comprises a first portion connected to the top base 11, respectively marked 30, 31 for the branches 14, 15.
  • Each first portion 30, 31 is extended by a second folded portion 32, 33 outwardly of the staple 10 in the direction of the base base 11.
  • Each folded portion 32, 33 comprises a folding zone 321, 331 elastically deformable and a blade 322, 332 free lateral movement carrying the fastening element 28, 29 corresponding.
  • Each blade 322, 332 is broken down into a first section 322a, 332a connected to the folding zone 321, 331, directed substantially in the axial direction D1 of the clip 10, and into a second section 322b, 332b inclined laterally towards the inside of the staple 10 while approaching axially the summit base 11.
  • the folding zone 321, 331 provides an arrangement of the blade 322, 332 partially laterally interposed between the first portion 30, 31 and the outer leg 12, 13 adjacent, laterally positioning, however, a blade portion at the hook of clipping 22, 23 carried the outer branch 12, 13 adjacent.
  • the blade portion positioned laterally at the clipping hook that is to say in the same lateral plane as the bottom of the clipping hook 22, 23 carried by the outer leg 12, 13 adjacent, is positioned along the first blade section 322a, 332a, while the remainder of the blade 322, 332, in particular the second section 322b, 332b, is strictly laterally interposed between the first portion 30, 31 and the outer leg 12, 13 adjacent.
  • the hooking elements 28, 29 are arranged at the free ends of the second sections 322b, 332b.
  • the lateral retention in position of a blade portion 322, 332 at the bottom of the clipping hook 22, 23 is practiced through a passage formed laterally in the thickness of the bottom of the clipping hook 22, 23, avoiding any direct contact between said blade portion and the clipping hook 22, 23.
  • each folded portion 32, 33 constitutes elastic means of lateral displacement of the element.
  • latch 28, 29, so that the latter can vary selectively between a locking position ( figures 5 and 6 ) projecting inside the central housing 26 to axially lock the pin 27, or a release position ( figure 4 ) of the pin 27 released from the central housing 26, that is to say outside the housing 26.
  • the blade portions held laterally at the clipping hooks 22, 23 form means for actuating the movement of the elements. 28, 29 to their locking positions, which actuating means are themselves automatically controlled by the action of clipping the clip 10 on the first piece 19.
  • the elements of hooking 28, 29 are outside the housing 26 to release the post 27 make it removable axially from the housing 26.
  • each fastening element 28, 29 is located at the same level in the transverse direction D3 of the clip 10.
  • the first portion 30, 31 of each inner branch 14, 15 is provided with a passage hole 34, 35 of the fastening element 28, 29 carried by said internal branch 14, 15.
  • the first portion 30, 31 of each inner leg 14, 15 is provided with retaining claws 36 of the attachment pin 27.
  • the retaining claws 36 are directed towards the inside of the clip 10.
  • the central housing 26 is delimited laterally by the first portions 30, 31 directly facing each other, the retaining claws 36 are continuously projecting inside the central housing 36, whatever the state of the clip 10, that is to say, it is clipped or not on the first piece 19, and that the pin 27 of the second piece 20 is or not engaged in the central housing 36.
  • Such retaining claws 36 have the role of maintain in place the attachment pin 27 inside the central housing 26 directly at the time of its axial engagement, by engaging the claws 36 in the outer faces of the pin 27.
  • This holding in place of the pin 27 by the claws 36 is automatic to ensure pre-assembly of the second piece 20 with the clip 10 (first assembly step: figure 4 before the movement of the fastening elements 28, 29 to their locking positions when clipping the clip 10 to the first piece 19 (second assembly step: figures 5 and 6 ).
  • each hooking element 28, 29 has two main teeth directed laterally inwardly of the staple 10, offset relative to each other in the transverse direction D3, and connected in the transverse direction D3 of the staple 10 by an edge of curved compression laterally outwardly of the staple 10.
  • each compression edge has an auxiliary tooth directed laterally inwardly of the staple 10. The end of the auxiliary tooth is shifted towards the outside of the staple 10 relative to the ends of the main teeth.
  • the main teeth and the curved compression edge have two distinct functions.
  • the teeth, pointed, constitute an aggressiveness zone rapidly initiating the penetration of the fastening elements 28, 29 into the attachment stud 27, while the curved compression edges have the role of gradually increasing the contact surface between the hooking elements 28, 29 and the attachment pin 27.
  • the deep penetration of the main teeth increases the mechanical strength of the assembly.
  • the auxiliary tooth is used in the case where the material of the fastening post 27 is relatively soft, to constitute an emergency element to overcome the low mechanical strength of the post 27.
  • a first assembly step ( figure 4 ) it is necessary to engage axially the fastening pin 27 in the central housing 26, between the inner limbs 14, 15. With the pre-assembly retaining claws 36 provided on the first portions 30, 31 of the internal branches 14 , 15 to penetrate laterally into the post 27 during its axial engagement, the clip 10 is automatically secured to the second part 20, but the axial retention is not yet maximum.
  • the dimensions of the opening 21 in the lateral direction D2 are slightly less than the distance between the clipping hooks 22, 23 when the external branches 12 , 13 are in their natural configuration, that is to say free of external constraints. In this way, when the hooks 22, 23 are engaged on the edges of the opening 21, the outer branches 12, 13 are slightly bent towards the inside of the clip 10, so as to be naturally recalled towards the outside permanently and to ensure the clipping of the clip 10 on the first part 19.
  • the blade portion 322, 332 intended to be disposed laterally at the same level as the bottom of the clipping hook 22, 23 of the outer branch 12, 13 adjacent occupies such a position, in particular when said outer leg 12, 13 is in its natural configuration.
  • the blade portions 322, 332 provided to be at the same level laterally as the hooks 22, 23 undergo a lateral approach (by flexion of the folding zones 321, 331 possibly combined at a bending of the blade 322, 332) of the same value as the approximation of the clipping hooks 22, 23.
  • This approximation of the portions of the first blade section 322a, 332a 322, 332 causes a proportionally greater approximation of the fastening elements 28 , 29 towards each other.
  • the edges of the hooks 22, 23 on the side of the junction with the flexible blades 24, 25 being inclined have the effect of creating a permanent axial compression between the parts 19, 20.
  • these inclined edges of the hooks 22, 23 cause an automatic recoil of the parts 19, 20 against each other.
  • the elements latching 28, 29 remain in the locking position.
  • the attachment of the clip 10 to the second piece 20 is held firmly during the beginning of the axial outlet of the clip 10 relative to the opening 21 of the first piece 19.
  • the clip 10 is made by cutting and folding a metal sheet of a relatively small thickness having undergone heat treatments adapted to confer elasticity properties.
  • the second piece 20, and more particularly the attachment stud 27, are made of a material softer than the hooking elements 28, 29 of the clip 10 to allow the main and auxiliary teeth of the latter to sink In the material of the stud 27.
  • the material selected may be an injectable thermoplastic material.
  • the V configuration of the flexible blades 24, 25 and second sections 322b, 332b facilitate the introduction of the clip on the first piece 19.
  • the first portions 30, 31 are inclined laterally towards the inside of the staple 10 while approaching the summit base 11 so as to form a V facilitating the establishment of the attachment stud 27 in the housing 26.
